A-2 HP Conics guide




I decided that we are going to need to remaining time to master the basic skills of conics so there isn't any application problems where you see the real-world context.  I think that is to your advantage as you won't have to interpret; just do what the problem says to do.


There are 6 problems

1 put an equation of a conic into standard form and graph

1  stating domain and range in interval notation

1  Writing the equation of a conic from a graph

2 writing an equation for a conic from a description

1 solving a system that includes at least one conic equation

...and an extra credit!


With the exception of the system, you should have all examples of these types of problems in your packet.

The systems are in your book on page 267.  Don't forget that there can be up to 4 answers or as low as none in some cases.
